What are 8 year old girls actually interested in?
Hello fellow TBers
Been AWOL a while (again) but you'll be glad to know that's in part been because I've been beavering away writing :-)
And I'm wondering if any TBers have some good answers to the question:
'What are 8 year old girls interested in?'
Comments
One Direction,
Cuddly pets,
Furbies (still),
Fairies,
Social intermingling, sleep-overs and parties.
[information result of study of Granddaughter aged nine-and-a-half going on twenty something ...]
-One Direction (could be substituted with any other boy band of the generation)
-Dancing (or any other hobby where they can dress up, put on make up and prance around with friends)
-Loom Bands (the frienship bcraelets of the noughties)
-Animals (for me it was dolphins/seals but for her it is dogs and cats)
-Fashion (not sure what the equivalent of Jackie magazine is these days though!)
-Nintendo Ds (I'm still struggling to come to terms with a SEGA)
- Selfies and BB ing her friends (Shudders at the thought of this being an option in the 80's/90's- not sure if my hair would have fit on the one screen!)
- Any Disney musical (currently Frozen)
Hope this helps.
